Tarureka Estate is such a beautiful spot for a wedding. And it’s surprisingly close to Wellington – just over the hill and you’re there!

Michaela and Ryan are such down-to-earth characters, we had great fun with them and theirs on their gorgeous day. It was one of those super hot Wairarapa days, you could almost see the steam rising off the ground – the wedding was outside with no shade but Michaela had thought ahead and there were plenty of shade umbrellas for those who wanted them.

Cars and motorbikes were a big feature and so we made the most of them! And their first dance to quite a different wedding song words brought a giggle to everyone and their beautiful dancing brought tears to Mums eye.
